No Shame In Feeling Shame

from Silver Backed Bream by Robh Hokum

/

lyrics

Stepping off
the bus you took,
escaping the lover
that you don’t love no-more
Tearing at the single ticket,
drinking up the sadness in your palms
This is the
kisses of
that silent
seduction you craved

Try to smell the
dandelions:
you’ll wake up
covered in your piss

Oh my lord!
Is this what muscles do
when a back arches in delight?
That old body;
its stale coffee;
a warm cadaver
Terror in my night
Slip through these
shaking fingers
“Silence!”
That is enough…

The day
you fall in love
is the
day
the rot settles in

A growing sense of age
is all that you left with him
along with a bed full of stains

He will never taste the same:
his iron has oxidised within
